This was the closest I’ve come to my favorite kardamom bullar in the konditori in Haga Parken in Stockholm. I left the egg out, because their bullar are pretty dense, not fluffy. I have to keep working on the form, and I think I need to roll out the last time to a thinner pastry. Otherwise, so fantastic.

Impressed. Much easier than I expected and the instructions were simple and clear. It helped to watch Nea’s YouTube video first. Flavor is next level.
The top rack buns browned quickly - I think the insides might be just slightly underbaked. My bake ended up making enough for two baking sheets and the baking sheet on the lower rack baked better once I put it on the top rack. I might try to simulate that again with the next batch to ensure a thorough bake and golden top.

I made these buns yesterday and was so happy to see the liberal amount of cardamom used! Many recipes are too conservative when using that spice. I proofed the dough in the oven with the light turned on, and it doubled in size in less than an hour. Due to mismeasuring, I ended up with 18 buns instead of the 14 it said it would yield, but they turned out fantastic. Freeze and reheat beautifully, too!

Just took the pan out of the oven and set these out to cool. The dough is great and I will make again. Less butter for filling next time as too much oozed out during baking and the cardamom sugar went with it.
I will make them again - tastes great.

I have the recipe printed out and I'm excited to try it. Great video! I've had the Fabrique cardamom buns, but live in Maine, so I'm excited to try making my own.

Hi, I can’t wait to make this recipe, but can you please specify which type of cardamom to use? Black? Green? I have never used it before thank you.
